this seems very much out of character for valerie/obama.

i suspect that somehow an officer is about to get court marshalled (maybe the old child pornography on the home computer setup, if they don’t have anything better on the poor guy)...

Let’s secretly embed microchips in all Guantanamo prisoners that can be tracked and then let them out and bomb the $hit out of them when they return to the battlefield.

Who knows, they might already be doing that.

Think of the money we would have saved if they’d

I’m all for closing Gitmo. Hang every prisoner left, and give it to Cuber.

Well, we did get 5 others. It might be a useful tactic if employed deliberately, at least until such time as the other terrorists decide they want no part of released prisoners and kill them, themselves.

Dang, I wish we could find a way to track my elderly Dad, but I don’t want to fire a Hellfire at him, we just want to find him quickly if he wanders off into the woods...

Yeah, I’m hoping they were all chipped before they
